joytest(3)		       Svgalib User Manual		      joytest(3)

NAME
     joytest - test the svgalib joystick package in text mode

SYNOPSIS
     joytest number

DESCRIPTION
     This demo program tries to open the joystick with the given number and cal-
     ibrates  it.  The	user is prompted to press <Return> after which any state
     change of the joystick is reported until the program is killed.

     This demo is part of svgalib and can be found in the demos/ subdirectory of
     the original svgalib distribution. However, it is not installed in the sys-
     tem by default, s.t. it is unclear where you can find it  if  your  svgalib
     was installed by some linux distribution. Even then, when you have the demo
     on your system, you probably won't have the sources s.t. it is only of lim-
     ited use for you.

     In  case  of  any such problem, simply get an svgalib distribution from the
     net. You even don't need to install it. Just make in the demos/ subdirecty.
     As of this writing, svgalib-1.3.0.tar.gz is the latest version and  can  be
     retrieved	by  ftp  from  sunsite.unc.edu	at  /pub/Linux/libs/graphics and
     tsx-11.mit.edu at /pub/linux/sources/libs which will most probably be  mir-
     rored by a site close to you.

CAVEATS
     The  functions  used by this demo are only available in ELF versions of sv-
     galib. Due to backwards compatibility issues it cannot be used with  shared
     a.out libs.

     Pavlik.
